Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

CanadaThe hosts were really lovely and hospitable and genuinely care about each individual guest. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was perfectly located near the old town. 10/10 I wouldnt stay anywhere else if I visited Funchal again

PolandThe shower pipe was blocked so the water wouldn't come down while I was showering. The mattress was horrible and even though there was an extra blanket provided I was still freezing in the room. Old fashioned design of the room but it's fine ;)
It was very clean and quite well located. I didn't know before checking in that daily room cleaning and towel change is included. The owners are friendly and ready to help you anytime!

United KingdomVery nice, clean and traditional looking property. The host was amazing and super helpful. Location is perfect, close to various bars and restaurant and other tourist attractions. Breakfast was offered every morning, which was very good. All the staff were extremely nice. The host also helped to book us onto a day trip, which was an amazing experience and we saw a lot of the island. Would stay here again.

United KingdomThere were no tea/coffee making facilities in the rooms. Care is needed on leaving/entering the hotel as there are no pavements and the road can be busy at certain times of the day. There was some external traffic noise but generally it is a very quiet residential area.
The staff particularly Umberto and his father were very approachable and helpful particularly during a bout of illness I suffered during the week. Umberto himself collected us promptly at our request from the airport and returned us there at the end of our stay. I stayed there with friends, a couple, and thoughtfully and unexpectedly we were provided with a downstairs suite in an adjacent property which had its own sitting room which was comfortable and private and ideal for our needs. We took our breakfast in the main hotel which is just next door and the service although simple was very good. The food whilst relatively simple was fine and Umberto's father brought in home made bread for us every morning. The whole suite was very clean and well cared for and all facilities were satisfactory. The hotel is located just near the restaurant quarter of the old city so we were a 10 minute walk from town. On occasions when we were tired we were able to take a bus home , the number 40 which stops immediately outside the hotel.

NorwayNothing that I can think of. Not very many wall sockets that could see but I made do.
Quiet pension in the upper old town, with short walking distance to restaurants, the main market etc. Traditional, pretty room with comfortable bed, plenty closet space for clothing and other stuff. TV with plenty international channels. Spacious and bright bathroom with good shower and a large sink. My room was in an adjacent building but very good. Father and son Horta who runs the place are very nice and helpful people, and speak multiple languages.

GermanyThere is a main building, and another one at the adjacent road, where we stayed. The main one has nice views, while the other one feels too dark and aged, even with a CRT TV.
This was a last minute booking, but we were happy with what we got. The host is a such nice person. We were received at the location, got the access and the instructions around the place and some tips for restaurants nearby. The stay was smooth. The beds and shower were pretty good! The location is also a plus, within few minutes walk from the most beautiful corner of Funchal.

Czech RepublicSomeone might not like the breakfast that is esentially the same every day. That’s why this is an ideal stay for 2-3 days to get used to Funchal and navigate yourself around. Also bear in mind the main street runs straight so some drivers will test their engines (and roaring may wake up light sleepers like myself).
The location is amazing, short walk from the Mercado and plenty of local restaurants/cafes but with peace and quiet environment. Rooms were clean and bright, everything was tidy and proper. It is a bit in an old-style/vintage accomodation and we really had a good time here - we were lucky to get an access to the 2nd building next to the one with reception/breakfast service.
